Heroes On Vacation is a documentary-style reality show in which unsung Chinese “heroes” are repaid for their altruism. These everyday heroes, who dedicate their lives to helping others, are rewarded with a surprise luxury vacation aboard a 5-star cruise ship. Little do they know, however, that boarding with them are some of the men and women whose lives they’ve changed. These people see in the trip a chance to express their gratitude to those who have sacrificed much of their own lives to better the lives of others in their local communities. Intercutting between footage of the heroes’ backstories, the events and actions that define each hero, as well as onboard conversations with the people these heroes have helped, this heartwarming program showcases their rewarding, luxury cruise journey as well as touching stories of selfless action, providing a feel-good reflection on the ancient Chinese proverb “one good turn deserves another. ”
